Rototo - Organic Coarse Ribbed Oldschool Crew Socks Navy/Dark Red [R1255] COMING SOON*
Description
COMING SOON*
ROTOTO’s R1255 Coarse Ribbed Oldschool Crew Socks take their inspiration from the striped tube socks associated with American West Coast culture in the late 1970s. Rather than simply reproducing the look, ROTOTO rebuilds the style using thick cotton blend yarn and specialized Japanese knitting machinery, creating a sock with considerably more texture and substance than a conventional athletic crew sock.
The body is knitted from a low-count cotton blend that gives the ribbing its pronounced, slightly rugged appearance and firm stretch. ROTOTO uses specialized machinery that has become increasingly uncommon, allowing the heavier yarn to be worked into the coarse rib structure that defines the R1255. Underfoot, a long pile knit creates a soft, springy layer of cushioning that makes the sock comfortable for extended periods of walking or standing.
The Navy/Dark Red combination gives the R1255 a more subdued interpretation of vintage athletic striping. Deep navy and muted red work naturally together without becoming overly bright, making this an easy option with raw denim, faded jeans, military trousers and brown or black footwear.
ROTOTO rates the R1255 at three out of five for thickness, giving it enough cushioning and structure to feel substantial while remaining practical with everyday footwear. It is a simple design on the surface, but the yarn, knitting machinery and long pile sole are what separate it from an ordinary striped crew sock.
Made in Japan.

Fabric & Care: Made from 73% cotton, 12% acrylic, 12% polyester and 3% polyurethane. The thick cotton blend creates the coarse ribbed texture while a long pile knit beneath the foot adds cushioning and a springy feel. ROTOTO notes that the surface can be sensitive to abrasion, particularly when worn with leather footwear. Wash gently and avoid tumble drying, as excessive heat may cause shrinkage.
Fit: Available at Private & Co. in Medium and Large. Medium fits approximately 25–27cm and Large fits approximately 27–29cm. The ribbed construction provides comfortable stretch through the foot and lower leg while maintaining the substantial character of the heavier yarn.
